Dolomites, Italy!!!

The Dolomites are a mountain range in Italy, spanning along northen Italy's borders. The Dolomites are famous for their stunning views, winter skiing, hiking and even base jumping.



One of the greatest parts of the Dolomites is its winter skiing. With more than 15 connected villages, and over 450 lifts (including T-Bars, chairlifts and gondolas), you never do the same run twice. The food is another major part of Italy, and therefore the Dolomites, with fabulous pastas and pizzas at the top of most gondolas.


There is also a day trip, around a monolith named the Sellaronda, where you ski all the way around this monolith, back to the village you started at. It normally takes a whole day! And then if you want another full day, you can go the other way around, for a completely different experience.


Cheers, Tom
